nick cave and the bad seeds

Despair and Deception, Love's ugly little twins. Came a-knocking on my door, I let them in. Darling, you're the punishment for all of my former sins. I let love in. I let love in. The door it opened just a crack, but Love was shrewed and bold. My life flashed before my eyes, it was a horror to behold. A life-sentence sweeping confetti from the floor of a concrete hole. I let love in. I let love in. I let love in. I let love in. Well I've been bound and gagged and I've been terrorized. And I've been castrated and I've been lobotomized. But never has my tormenter come in such a cunning disguise. I let love in. I let love in. I let love in. I let love in. O Lord, tell me what I done. Please don't leave me here alone. Where are my friends? My friends are gone. O Lord, tell me what I done. Please don't leave me here alone. Where are my friends? My friends are gone. I let love in. I let love in. So if you're sitting all alone and hear a-knocking at you door and the air is full of promises, well buddy, you've been warned. Far worse to be Love's lover than the lover that Love has scorned. I let love in. I let love in. I let love in. I let love in. I let love in. I let love in. I let love in.
